Off On One Again

A blog of no interest to anyone apart from me. Highly egotistical. Somewhat ironic that once upon a time people kept diaries secret. Now we publish to the world, even if no-one is listening (or reading). This may include stuff on Greece, history, rugby, cricket, Health and Safety, Wales, genealogy and West Hendred. It will almost certainly include complete rants about things I find amusing, interesting or annoying. There is no guarantee that anyone will share my views!

Location: Didcot, Oxon, United Kingdom

37, forgetful, cynical, sarcastic, would like to have been a struggling artist but ended up with a PhD in chemistry. Got bored with being in the lab, fell into Health and Safety and now can't get out of science without taking a pay cut. Rather enjoying the diversion into Environmental compliance. Unfit and terminally depressed. Lovely wife Sam - just about all that keeps me together. Son Rafferty GFX Hall born 24 Oct 2005 is growing up quickly. Greyhound (Buddy), cats (PJ and Boots), tortoises (Tinkerbell and Compost). Learning Greek at Evening Classes. Play Cricket badly for Didcot CC, haven't played rugby for years and am a little annoyed about that. According to my medical, am clincially obese. Earn far too little. Completed H&S and Environmental Diplomas

Hair Cut

I had my hair cut at the weekend. This is notable as I last had a significant hair cut (i.e., not just taking the ends off) on 08 Aug 88.

I was aged 16 years and 257 days the last hair cut, and 34 years 50 days for the next. The second period was longer than the first: this was the first hair cut for over 17 years.

Admittedly, Sam did it in the kitchen with the bathroom scissors, but still
- a good 10 inches was removed to leave it slightly longer than shoulder length. The remains are in a bag in my bedside table.

Sam thinks I'm mad as I still have my goatee in my wallet.

Before you do that Jonathan - I beg you to tell Marv that the hair we are talking about is not from your cranium. I would say 'head' but this would lead to questions being asked that humanity is not yet ready to hear the answers to.

The pony tail is still about 6 inches. Looks a lot healthier and in far better condition now. There - a description is worth more than a picture, surely.
